insadong 1 300x200 A Day at Insadong, Korea

Today, I spent the day at Insadong, Seoul Korea. It’s a popular tourist destination for visitors and local natives. Insadong is a 700m long street filled with Korean souvenir shops, restaurants, tea shops, street food vendors, pottery and antiques, and more!

After walking up and down the long street, I was super thirsty and decided to stop by a traditional Korean tea house. The name of the tea house was Insadong and it’s a popular place to film Korean movies and dramas and a favorite of the natives. There’s a lot of variety on their menu, so you can choose from traditional hot or cold teas, Korean pastries, and desserts. I didn’t get a chance to take a picture of the Korean garden in the back, but be sure to take a look if you visit! icon smile A Day at Insadong, Korea

    I very recently tried Korean food in a lovely Korean restaurant in Milan only recently and I fell in love with this country cuisine. Reading about Korean food experiences make me kinda happy now. The Iced Pine Leaf tea surely looks interesting! I want to try it.- Barbara

      The Iced Pine Leaf tea was refreshing! Perfect for hot summer days. I liked the omija tea better though, since it was fruity, almost like pomegranate :)
